Wang Yi's brutal performance continued.
He snatched the rebound out of the air, then landed and immediately launched a fast break.
Seeing that none of his teammates could get back on defense in time, the opposing shooting guard hurriedly reached out to grab Wang Yi. But the moment he did, Wang Yi's momentum sent him tumbling six or seven meters backward.
The referee couldn't help but part his lips in shock.
The whistle in his mouth nearly fell out.
This time, though, he reacted quickly enough. He blew the whistle and called a foul on the player. Since there were no players in front of Wang Yi, it was an unsportsmanlike foul.
The Kings got two free throws and possession.
By now, everyone could see that Wang Yi was playing like he was on something tonight.
He was a complete freak.
An unbelievably extreme freak.
The various mind-boggling displays of violence Wang Yi had put on throughout the game had left every spectator in the arena speechless.
They had been relentlessly mocking him earlier, but now not one of them dared make a sound.
Meanwhile, back in China, in the Baidu TV livestream room—
Xu Jingyu was just as stunned by Wang Yi's brutal performance.
He glanced at the comments, then laughed and said,
"Someone's asking why Whale's gone quiet. All I can say is: this is astonishing! You wanna know what astonishing is? This is astonishing. It's so astonishing, you don't dare say a word."
"After that performance from Brother Yi tonight, I take back what I said earlier. The Kings are definitely making a comeback tonight!"
"Just look at Brother Yi. He doesn't look like he's trying to blow past the opposing players. He looks like he's trying to tear the entire Bradley Center apart."
